Answer» hope it helps you Step-by-step explanation: LET the number of rows be x and number of STUDENTS in each row be y Then total students will be=x*y Now according to question (x+10)(y-3)=xy xy-3x+10y-30=xy 10y-3x-30- --(eq1) Now.. (x-10)(y+5)=xy xy+5x-10y-50=xy 5x-10y 50 --(eq 2) ADDING eq 1 and 2 we get 2x=80 X=40 Putting x=40 in eq 1 we get 10y-120=30 10y=150 y=15 |
